A Great Forum
Hello everyone.
I've been lurking for a few months and finally became a member. I had no idea that such sites were available. I can't believe the amount of information that is on this site. I have had a ball reading the posts. My search for another fedora brought me here. I have been wearing them all my life. Then I read a little about a man named Steve and his Adventurebilts. Wow! This is the hat I've been searching for. I placed my order on April 21, 2008. I had an email back from Steve in no time. What a great guy. I don't mind the wait at all. To have a hat handmade is something new for me. And by the guy that did the hats for Indy 4 no less. How many people will be able to say that? I just wanted to say thanks for the hours of fun I've had here and will continue to enjoy.

Oh, by the way, I ordered the "Idol Grab" bash.

Thanks. I am almost afraid to say that it is a Dorfman Pacific. I took the scissors and cut the brim a little to give it the dimensional cut and a little water and a clothes pin to give it a nice pinch. It helped the overall look so much, my friends thought I got a new hat. Wait until they see the AB. I can't wait.

I have also ordered a SOC from Peters Brothers. I got the hat in the soft rabbit fur felt. I am told I should get it in June. Anybody else have one of these? I ordered it before I learned about ABs. Oh well. It will be a great hat and my favorite until I get the white box from Mississippi.
All the Best!

The only person I can think of off the top of my head who is a PB aficionado is Michaelson, though I'm certain there are plenty of others. Given any thought to the Akubras? Myself, I have one AB, another on the way, an Akubra Fed Deluxe, and a few other miscellaneous hats in my collection. I wish somebody had warned me, this hobby can get expensive!Buchanan Bob wrote:I have also ordered a SOC from Peters Brothers. I got the hat in the soft rabbit fur felt.
